4th 7 (1) |
23rd May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
He's seen plenty of action and was with his third trainer when bagging Newmarket handicap (6f, good) last Friday; return to this career-high mark demands more. |
11/1 |
|
1st 3 (1) |
15th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Two 6f wins on turf and AW for previous trainers and he ran right up to his best when a close fourth on Lingfield AW for this one in April; has had some excuses before and since and, while he's on the exposed side now, a good run can't be ruled out back on turf. |
6/1 |

8th 7 (5) |
28th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
Closely matched with Alasrae on C&D form from Good Friday and his effort there can be marked up given he was poorly drawn; can be given a pass for Bath last time (hampered) and he has yet to run a poor race over C&D; more exposed than some but still commands respect. |

22nd May 2026 Good 0m 5f 160y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Didn't progress in six 2yo runs for Charlie Hills and was only sixth of ten when favourite on recent stable debut at Windsor (5f, good to firm); may have needed that run but he needs to raise his game back up in trip. |
9/2 |
|
6th 1 (3) |
4th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
0-6 as 2yo for Charlie Hills but he ran some promising races including when fourth in a C&D novice last summer and third in a Kempton nursery (6f, AW) in October; returns for new yard after 166 days off and interesting to see how he figures in the market. |

Two 6f wins this summer, namely a Redcar maiden and a Leicester seller; well held in two nurseries since the latter success; now tried in a visor. |

21st May 2026 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Off the mark at the fifth attempt in a maiden at Chelmsford (6f, AW) last October and followed up in Kempton nursery (6f, AW); showed promise on soft ground last September; possible player if fully tuned up for comeback. |
5/1 |
|
1st 3 (1) |
30th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Placed in a Bath maiden (5.7f, soft) and a Wolverhampton novice (6f, AW) last month; not so good in a Lingfield nursery 16 days ago (7f, AW) but his earlier efforts bring him into the equation. |

26th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Made a bold bid when a close second in a nursery here (8.6f) last month but he failed to back that up at Lingfield (1m) four days later; that may have come too soon but he's now 0-7 and has a bit to prove again back at this trip. |
9/1 |

19th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Gelded since two spring efforts (5f/7f, good to firm) that suggest 6f may prove his ideal trip; latest form has been boosted by the useful winner subsequently; possibilities. |

26th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Showed promise in some novice events in the autumn but was last of seven on her nursery debut at Kempton (6f, AW) in November; visor is now added after a break and she needs do much better on this return to Tapeta. |

23rd Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |

Attempts in six-runner races on turf comprise a third-place finish at Chester (6f) then disappointing effort (finished last) at Nottingham; not sure what to expect. |

26th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Eight-race maiden who has twice failed to back up March's promising Kempton fourth (1m); returning to 1m can help but vulnerable to progressive rivals. |
8/1 |
|
8th 4 (14) |
30th Apr 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Resumed with a good fourth over 1m here but he went too keenly when only sixth in 1m Yarmouth handicap 19 days ago; no surprise to see him bounce back now dropped back in trip. |
12/1 |
|
6th 1 (4) |
11th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 3y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Out of half-sister to Accidental Agent whose fine career for the yard included a Group 1 at 1m; came nearest to a win when losing out narrowly on Kempton AW (6f) in November but his first 1m run, there in March, promised more as he had anything but a clear run; can do better as 3yo. |
11/4 |
Betting Forcast
5/2 Akabusi, 5/1 Too Darn Good, 20/1 Davvy, 7/1 From The Hip, 9/2 Credit Forgedd It, 7/2 Hello Its Me, 13/2 Station Bar
Verdict
None of these are safely ruled out. Akabusi got off to the perfect start for this yard last month and should go well in the repeat bid but STATION BAR hails from a family his trainer knows inside out and he can make a winning handicap debut.[Richard Russell]
